How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for UNI, measured when this story was written up on 5 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
UNI is trading at $9.08 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 62.2%, indicating strong short-term buying pressure compared to the 47.2% ratio over the last 4 hours. This surge is reflected in a positive 1-hour volume delta of +$563,758, contrasting with negative deltas of -$264,788 over 4 hours and -$474,433 over 24 hours. The buy ratio measures the proportion of buy volume to total volume, while volume delta shows the net difference between buy and sell volume. Although the 24-hour cumulative volume delta is -$1,326,859, the immediate 1-hour data suggests a recent shift toward net buying.
The latest daily buy ratio of 45.7% sits at the 13th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.2% - weaker buying than most days.
